Hi, Under 7.2, the web home dir is normally under /var/www. I would try to tell the installation program to change prefix to some thing else. If that does not work, I would make a link to a directory under /usr where there is a lot of space. If it wants to create a directory called newprog under /opt, i will do, before i install, cd /usr mkdir lot_of_space cd /opt ln -s /usr/lot_of_space newprog hth Willem
